Abstract: |
In December 2014, Cotswold Archaeology (CA) carried out an archaeological fieldwalking survey at Manor Farm, Manton, North Lincolnshire. The fieldwalking survey recovered artefacts dating from the prehistoric to modern periods, including worked flint, pottery, ceramic building material, metal objects and slag. The survey recorded evidence for prehistoric and Roman activity in the eastern part of the site, as well as a low background level of Anglo-Saxon and medieval activity. This corresponds with the results of previous archaeological investigations of the site. The prehistoric activity may have been associated with the immediately adjacent Jurassic Way. The Roman activity is probably associated primarily with an enclosure complex documented by a recent geophysical survey, as well as further Roman activity known to the immediate west of the present survey area. The slag recovered during the present survey supports previous evidence that the site was a focus of Roman metal working. |
